Stadiums / Speedways: Safeco Field

  • Inside Safeco Field, Seattle - Seattle
    Inside Safeco Field, Seattle

    Seattle is home to one of the newest and most impressive ballparks in America. If you're a baseball fan, you must visit Safeco Field while you're in Seattle.

    Home to the Seattle Mariners, Safeco Field was opened in 1999. Its most remarkable feature is the retractable roof. It can slide into place over the stadium in just 20 minutes, thus protecting fans from the Seattle rain. There are no bad seats in this stadium-- it's large and has great views. Go up to the upper decks and you'll be treated to an awesome view of Seattle, the sound and neighboring Seahawks Stadium.

    You might consider taking a tour of Safeco Field while you're in Seattle. You'll see lots of areas of the ballpark that are not usually open to the public, including the dugout, the press box, some luxury suites, visitor's clubhouse-- and even the field itself! This is truly a treat for any baseball fan. You are allowed to bring cameras-- what a photo op!

    Stadiums / Speedways: Sporting events in Seattle
  • Tip Rating:
  • Hmm, so your in Seattle for awhile and wanna do something fun? Well currently(August) its baseball season and a ballgame is at your fingertips in Safeco field.

    Soon it will be college and pro-football season too, American Football.

    To watch the University of Washington Huskies is a treat, the stadium is very very scenic! Its located on lake washington with views of a boat marina, lake, mountains, great area. But, even if the UW football team is down, they still usually sellout. If your really interested in seeing a game, go near the stadium gameday or meet some students at the UW.

    The professional team, the Seattle Seahawks, plays downtown in Seahawks stadium. Last year same day tickets were easy to come by, but this year has better expectations so check ahead.

    Stadiums / Speedways: Safeco Field
  • Tip Rating:
  • Safeco Field is a truly beautfiul baseball park. When it rains the roof moves to protect you, when the sunshines the roof stays open to allow the tanning process to begin. The Mariners may not be the best team to watch, but it's worth going to a game just to see Safeco.

    Stadiums / Speedways: Safeco Field and the Seattle Mariners
  • Tip Rating:
  • Safeco Field may not have the same history that surrounds some of the country's older ballparks, but maybe history isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Tickets are a bargain, the retractable roof means no getting wet, quality beer is available for imbibing, and the place is generally quite clean. Plus, the Mariners, with a history not much longer than the field's, have quickly become one of the best teams in the country.

    Be sure to try the Ichi-Roll! What could be more fun than munching on baseball star Ichiro Suzuki's favorite sushi roll?

    Every baseball fan needs to see the Mariners from their outdoor stadium - Safeco Field. One of the best stadiums in all of baseball, there's not a bad seat in the house! From the upper levels, you can see Mount Ranier and the seattle skyline. From the lower levels you feel you are part of the action. Safeco Field still boasts one of the only manually operated scoreboard left in moder stadiums. The bullpen is also an exciting place to watch pitchers warm up through the fence in the main level in left field.

    The Mariners made history in 2001 by becoming the winningest team in baseball! Tickets start at just $7 (outfield bleachers) and go up to $50 for infield seats. For tickets try Ticketmaster.

    In 2001, Safeco Field and the Seattle Mariners had the honor of hosting the All Star Game. Fans were given the chance to tour the field and attend Fanfest before the game as part of the festivities.

    Stadiums / Speedways: Safeco Field; Home of the Seattle Mariners
  • Tip Rating:
  • even if you aren't particularly a sports fan, Safeco Field is a great way to enjoy Seattle from April to September...for $7 you can get centerfield bleacher tickets and watch Seattle Mariners Baseball in what is arguably the most beautiful ballpark in the world.. Safeco Field has a retractible roof which is open unless it is raining and allows an incredible view of the south seattle skyline.. even if you dont pay attention to the game, the ballpark is a cool place to walk around and take in the excitement of 45,000 die-hard fans enjoying "America's Favorite Pasttime" .. the food in the stadium is incredible also... there are a lot of stands that you can buy the traditional hot dogs and cracker-jacks from, but also a restaurant called the Hit It Here Cafe that i hear has excellent food... also the local favorite "Ivar's" serves food there and they have great clam chowder among other things.. you can also sample beer from a number of local Microbreweries during the game.. as matter of fact, the Pyramid Brewery Alehouse is right across the street along the west side (3rd baseline) of the field where you can eat and drink beer brewed in-house..
